You said white line on the both side this can be normal and can be caused by the friction of the teeth against the cheek.it is called lines Alba.if you do not smoke it is unlikely to develop into anything harmful.

Hi sir/ madam, It is a normal condition and it is called as linea Alba in medical language. It is usually caused during chewing at the posterior teeth region on the cheeks, as cheeks get trapped some times  during chewing food. If there is burning sensation present , consult dentist.
